"After being referred to Dr.

from another specialist who suspected that I had an autoimmune disorder, I went to see her for the first time." ...More I then got a call from her saying that I tested positive for a particular autoimmune disorder, she was going to send me some information in the mail, and that I should come back to see her in a couple of weeks.
The "information" I received in the mail was one of those waiting room brochures about a disease, with "You have this" scribbled on the top.
When I went in to discuss the results, this was where things went really wrong.
IN SHORT: She diagnosed me with a potentially life-threatening disease, gave me completely incorrect information that could have severely jeopardized my health, didn't listen to a word I said, insulted me, and made me feel stupid for asking questions. Worst, she argued with me about my test results from another specialist. She claimed that the results written in the report were "impossible" when they are actually a very common symptom of my autoimmune disorder.
After leaving her office, I sat in my car and cried for a good 20 minutes in the hospital parking lot. It was the single worst healthcare experience that I have ever had. I would not recommend her to anyone with an autoimmune disorder.
